Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument

The MOST INTERESTING thing: something the ranger said--that Lt. Custer was born in OHIO!!!!!!

A SAD thing: so many people died. There was even a horse cemetary---the soldiers even killed their own horses and hid behind them to try to stay alive. But it didn't work.

for FAMILIES: You can get another Junior Ranger Badge here. Try and see if the program in the national cemetery (there is a button to push...) is working when you go.





And also, you might like to dance by the horse statues in the Native American memorial circle!

(Plans) Sterling AK (Kenai Penninsula)

We plan to spend 3 nights/2 full days based here with possible area day trips (June 16th through June 19th).

We could take a trip to the town of Kenai---which offers a tour of a fish processing plan, walking tour of the old town, and hanging out at the kenai river beach to watch fishermen, possibly see beluga whales, and check out the volcanoes visible across the bay. (Will Mt. Redoubt still be spewing ash while we are in the area??!!)

We also hope to take a day trip to the K'Beq' Interpretive Center which focuses on the native american views of life, traditional plant use and storytelling. More information: http://www.kenaitze.org/KBeq/Index.html
